Citronella Essential Oil - Standardised - 10ML

Citronella Essential Oil is a standardised essential oil steam distilled from Cymbopogon winterianus and used in outdoor blends, home fragrance, and body products that call for a fresh lemony aroma. It is especially well known in outdoor sprays, candles, and diffusers where a bright, citrus-herbal scent is wanted.

The standardised profile helps keep the aroma more consistent from batch to batch, which can be useful in repeat-blend making. This is a concentrated essential oil and must be diluted before skin use.
